Best places in Europe to live with disabilities that require a wheelchair

Our take

Are you dreaming of a vibrant European adventure while ensuring accessibility for your family? As you and your wife explore potential second homes this May and June, consider the best places in Europe that cater to wheelchair users. From the sun-soaked streets of southern France, like Nice and Lyon, to the charming landscapes of northern Italy, Portugal, and even the welcoming Nordic countries, there's a world of options.

My wife and I will be traveling in Europe in May and June with our three young adult sons, with the specific eye on finding a possible second home that has most of the amenities needed for life with a wheelchair. Our oldest boy can only walk with assistance and has some rather severe issues, but his general health is good. In our place in the western U.S., he has easy access to medical care, an adult day program for socialization, and care workers that help us with some of his day-to-day living.

Redditers, any suggestions of places in Europe that are compatible with traveling to, and possibly moving and living with a family member in a wheelchair? We've had suggestions of southern France, such as Nice and possibly Lyon, but we are open to suggestions of other countries. Northern Italy, Portugal, Ireland, and even some of the Nordic countries have all been tossed into the ring.

For those Europeans living with disabilities, we would really appreciate your perspectives and insights. Thanks you!
